This Is Planet Earth... Day

It’s April 22nd, and everybody knows today is Earth Day…well, except maybe for Dramarama fans, but we’ll cut them some slack because it’s a hell of a lot harder to find a rhyme for “second” than it is for “first.” There’s also the fact that “What Are We Doing Here?” is a really great, Beatle-esque song that’s really well-intentioned and shouldn’t be written off just because they were a day off. Besides, all that matters is this: if you’ve got even a passing interest in environmental protection, then today’s the day to demonstrate your commitment to the cause. (You can find a list of Earth Day events by clicking here.)

For our part, we’d originally thought about doing a “green” playlist, which would certainly be thematically appropriate, but as we just did one of those for St. Patrick’s Day, we decided we’d do an “earth” playlist instead. Given the title, you can probably guess which track we’re kicking things off with, but if not, then look now, look all around, and you’ll figure it out pretty quickly.
